Providence of a Sparrow: Lessons from a Life Gone to the Birds

â€œThereâ€™s a special providence in the fall of a sparrow.â€ --William Shakespeare, Hamlet

B fell twenty-five feet from his nest into the life of Chris Chester. The encounter was providential for both of them.
B and Chester spent hours together playing games like bottle-cap fetch or hide-and-seek. They learned â€œwordsâ€ in each otherâ€™s vocabularies. B developed a fetish for nostrils and a dislike of the color yellow. He grew anxious if Chester came home late from work. At bedtime he would rub his sleepy eyes on Chesterâ€™s thumb and settle to sleep in his palm. Chester ended up turning part of his house into an aviary and adjusting his social life to meet Bâ€™s demands. This was a small price to pay, though, for the trust and comfort of a twenty-five-gram friend who brought joy and wonder back into his life.
